Mark Knopfler - You Can't Beat The House lyrics

rate me

You can't fool a fooler <br />I can tell when a John got jazzed by a Jezebel <br />You can't beat the house <br />You can't beat the house <br />Tell the man somebody <br />You can't beat the house <br /> <br />When these horn dogs <br />get lucky with dough <br />they'll blow it on the rooster <br />and the girls of Smokey Row <br />You can't beat the house <br />You can't beat the house <br />Now tell the man somebody <br />You can't beat the house <br /> <br />You want to buy you a dance <br />don't buy it in here <br />It's all skin games and jelly roll <br />red-eye and beer <br />They're all as mean as rat snakes <br />all got knives in their boots <br />Even the piano player, man, <br />he don't care who he shoots <br /> <br />See that little home wrecker <br />in the backroom <br />She'll pick your pocket <br />With her pet raccoon <br />You can't beat the house <br />You can't beat the house <br />Tell the man, somebody <br />You can't beat the house<br /><br />
